Key Highlights

Fixed daemon race condition - removed premature PID file write and added setInterval keepalive
Fixed Windows detached spawn issue by changing stdio from numeric FDs to 'ignore'
Fixed ESM compatibility - replaced require('path') with await import('node:path')
Added fallback for ReasoningBank search method (.searchPatterns() falls back to .search())
All 1725 tests pass across 28 files with 0 failures

New Features

PID file timing fix to prevent self-detection race condition
setInterval-based keepalive mechanism for Node.js process
Windows-compatible detached spawn stdio handling
Dynamic ESM/CJS compatible path module import
Search method fallback logic for ReasoningBank compatibility

Full Release Notes

## P0 Fixes

### #1478: Daemon Dies Immediately After Spawn
- Removed premature PID file write that caused self-detection race condition
- Added ref'd `setInterval` keepalive (unref'd timers don't keep Node.js alive)
- Changed detached spawn stdio from numeric FDs to `'ignore'` (fixes Windows child death)

### #1492: ESM require('path') Disables All 15 AgentDB Controllers
- `require('path')` throws ReferenceError in ESM context, silently killing `initAgentDB()`
- Replaced with `await import('node:path')` — works in both ESM and CJS

### #1492 (Bug 2): bridgeSearchPatterns Wrong Method
- ReasoningBank exposes `.search()` not `.searchPatterns()` in some versions
- Added fallback: tries `.searchPatterns()` first, falls back to `.search()`
